2．In American author Amy Chua's 2011 book Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother，she talks about the"tiger moms".This refers to （指的是） mothers who are strict with their children.The mothers believe that this encourages kids to become the best that they can be.Both of Amy Chua's daughters ended up going to top US universities.

    Many people believe that Chua's way is an example of how most Asian people raise their children.It is said that they often put their children's studies above everything else.Western parents，on the other hand，are seen as caring more about their children's self﹣esteem （自尊） and feelings.

    Of course，the truth is not that simple.Every parent has their own ways of raising their child﹣ it doesn't matter where they come from.I know one parent in the US，she is a friend of mine.She takes her daughter to all kinds of after school activities，leaving her daughter with no time to herself，And there are plenty of Chinese parents who spoil （溺爱） their children，For example，some parents do basic tasks for their children，such as tying up their hair or tying their shoes，even when their kids are old enough to do such things.

My own mother is a good example.She expected me to get high grades and pushed me to take piano lessons.But she was also generous （慷慨的） about allowing me to have some time to do what I wanted.In the end，I feel like I ended up becoming a better per﹣son because of this，Even those piano lessons that I disliked at first ended up helping me find my passion for music.
